The Entrepreneurial Life of Stephen Mitchell
Writing About My Life, Work, Creativity, and the Daily Effort to Learn, Grow, and Be Better.
Now that I am living alone, I have purchased a few kitchen appliances to make food preparation easier. A few weeks ago I asked for the Ninja NutriBullet - but somehow I ended up a "Ninja NutriBlender BN460ANZ30". I thought it’d be the same twist-lock design as most compact blenders. Turns out, this one had... Continue Reading →
Last night I scraped together all the gold coins I had in my office so I could (hopefully) buy a pizza for dinner (after a long day window cleaning). https://www.instagram.com/ezcreate.media/reel/DOF7EZXkxAW/ I demolished a large "Mediterranean Lamb" pizza all by myself. https://www.instagram.com/ezcreate.media/reel/DOGC_lGk-lR/ Donate a few dollars so I could buy more pizza or other cafe-food here...

After recent events impacted heavily on my lifestyle, I decided it was time to revise my food intake. Many years of easy-to-buy food - i.e. hamburgers, yiros, salty hot chips, etc - I have finally accepted that home-made preparation and cooking is not only better for the body, it's less expensive! With help from ChatGPT,... Continue Reading →
My avid readers would know I’ve been making my own smoothies for years. I recently decided that keeping them simple and nutritious is the key.

Whilst my wife and kids were off-island taking a (working-)holiday, I found myself craving the kind of food I used to indulge food had in my single days - bold, hearty flavours that pack a punch. After taking a look at the interior of our fridge, I decided to cook up a dinner similar to... Continue Reading →
In the last week of 2007 my dutiful wife handed me a short, straightforward to-do list prior to Christmas day. Of the multitude of things, she had highlighted the one thing I hesitate to go near → my BBQ! The neglected grill hadn't seen the light of day or had a proper cleaning since Sarah...

It has been a very busy first-month of 2021! To earn a few dollars I wash windows around Kangaroo Island - and I haven't stopped since the year began! Some locations require a 30-45 minute drive - because some clients reside in remote locations around Kangaroo Island. You Saw My First Healthy Smoothie? I now... Continue Reading →
I bought a blender for Xmas. Not for anyone else. I wanted it - to eat healthier breakfasts and lunches. I am now eating far better because of what I can do with it. Prior to purchase, I would have bland cereal and diluted cows milk followed by a rough-as-guts branded coffee. But now, oh... Continue Reading →
I arrived in town (the Adelaide CBD) at 7am this morning! As we drove through Hindmarsh Square we spotted the Sunrise crew and Vintage cars. My wife agreed to let me out to go shoot the cars and check out the glorified news reporters known nationally as the 'Ch7 Sunrise Crew'. But before my feet... Continue Reading →
